Insurgence

The Corporation Wars, Book 2

By: Ken MacLeod

Narrated by: Peter Kenny

Die for the Company, Live for the Pay

And the ultimate payoff is DH-17, an earthlike planet hundreds of light years from human habitation.

Ruthless corporations vie over the prize remotely, and war is in full swing. But soldiers recruited to fight in the extremities of deep space come with their own problems, from AI minds in full rebellion to Carlos 'the Terrorist' and his team of dead mercenaries, reincarnated from a bloodier period in earth's history for one purpose only: to kill.

But as old rivalries emerge and new ones form, Carlos must decide whether he's willing to fight for the company or die for himself.

Ken MacLeod continues the Corporation Wars trilogy in this action-packed science fiction adventure told against a backdrop of interstellar drone warfare, virtual reality, and an AI revolution.

Very slow and meandering.

Rather a disappointment after the first book in the series. Very slow and meandering. It does speed up a bit in the end, but overall a disappointment from Ken here.
